As a part of our Community Outreach, the Columbia Valley has programs that will recognize and honor JROTC / ROTC students for outstanding achievements throughout the academic year. Our valley will provide awards to ROTC cadets who go above and beyond their studies and training.
Scottish Rite ROTC Program for High Schools
Commencing in 1998 and approved by the Assistant Secretary of Defense, the Supreme Council, Southern Jurisdiction, initiated a program of recognition for outstanding Junior ROTC students. This initiative recognizes high school youth enrolled in the Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC) unit for their scholastic excellence and patriotic Americanism efforts. The award consists of a medal, ribbon and a certificate suitable for framing.
Scottish Rite ROTC Program for Colleges/Universities
Commencing in 2002, and approved by the Assistant Secretary of Defense, the Scottish Rite, Southern Jurisdiction, instituted a similar award for ROTC cadets. Like the JROTC Award Program, the recipient receives three recognitions: a certificate suitable for framing, a medal, and a ribbon.
